Heat distribution in multi-layer tissues, especially in the skin, is crucial for improving medical treatments, such as hyperthermia and laser therapy. Precise modeling of the thermal properties of skin layers is essential for achieving successful treatment outcomes. This study aims to investigate thermal dynamics in multi-layer tissues using high-order modeling techniques to optimize laser-based treatments. The local thermal non-equilibrium model is utilized in this study, incorporating the theory of porous media to account for the different thermal properties of blood and tissue in multi-layer biological tissues. The model is solved using a numerical method. The results show temperature distribution and thermal damage in multi-layer tissues under the influence of laser intensity, duration of laser exposure, and tissue porosity. As the laser intensity and duration increase, temperature distribution and thermal damage also increase. Porosity is inversely related to temperature distribution, with higher porosity leading to decreased temperature distribution.
